I’ve been wondering how Richelle Mead continues to put out book after book with such intriguing plot lines and non-stop action; The Fiery Heart is more what I expected to see this far into a spin-off series. It was still an excellent read, but with less of the action and fascinating plot lines than in earlier books from the series.

Adrian is one of my favorite fictional characters – he has so many layers and he’s the kind of guy you can fall in love with even though he’s not real, ha ha. I think he and Sydney make a great couple and I like the way their relationship is continuing to evolve. I would definitely have planned on continuing with the series, even without that non-conclusive ending!
